Description
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The engine, transmission, and brakes feel solid and reliable in many respects, and it’s a large car with a powerful engine configuration. The V12 inspires confidence, and the car has been serviced according to schedule, with the service book neatly filled out and stamped. A planned engine bay cleaning during reconditioning will make the engine compartment more pleasant to handle and more visually appealing.
-
Interior condition
The leather interior is in good condition, though the entire cabin was in need of cleaning, which has been done since the photos were taken. The wood inserts in the dashboard are elegant, and the control panels for the car's integrated GSM phone system add a period-correct touch of importance, serving as historical markers of the car's enthusiast appeal now and in the future.
The headliner sags slightly in the center section. The climate control system has been recently refurbished and works perfectly, as do all electrical functions, including individual adjustments for the seat cushions and backrests in the rear. The control panel for the rear seat on the left side is slightly loose and will need securing.
Both rubber and fabric floor mats are included, the latter featuring the classic small footrest cushions, which have also been reconditioned for delivery. -
Exterior condition
The paintwork is presentable and in normal condition for the mileage. On the left rear door, two trim pieces are missing—one on the lower edge and one on the upper edge (see photos). On the right front door, a lower trim piece is also missing (photo).
The car is equipped with Continental tires from 2019, featuring good tread depth, mounted on undamaged original 18" wheels. There are a few small marks/blemishes on the rear right wheel. -
General condition
A car that in car dealership language might be described as honest, meaning a vehicle with a good and worn patina that isn't hiding anything. With the promised detailing before delivery, this will be a pleasant, nice, and well-maintained representative of the model, and additionally, it comes with a good history.
